get-suckless-code

[GekkoP]

First, credits: like it says in the comments, this is basically Pidley's get-wmcode, adapted by me to get the suckless tools I regurarly use. Nothing more, really. So be thankful to him too.
I tested this script on the recent sid netinstall I did on the Pentium 4 and everything worked fine.
As usual, you are free to do whatever you want with it, even ignoring it if you feel so brutal. I won't get mad. Maybe.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# get-suckless-code: gets and compiles some suckless tools I usually need
# basically pidsley's get-wmcode edited for suckless tools, nothing more

rst="\e[0m"    # reset

alist=(dependencies st slock swarp dmenu tabbed surf)

let num=${#alist[*]}-1     # number of items in the array (minus one to account for zero index)
tmpfile=$(mktemp)          # make a temp file for dialog return value

# make a list in menu format, with a number first, then the name
for i in $(seq 0 $num); do
    blist[i]=$(echo $i ${alist[i]} off)
done

# display the list in a dialog, save the return value (the index numbers) in the tmpfile
dialog --no-tags --checklist 'choose one or more' 15 25 10 ${blist[*]} 2>$tmpfile
